i think you broke it.

ahhh! I got it! I feel like a complete idiot. Thank you all for the help! Have a good day

Why are all the PMs that I am sending going to the outbox and not the sent folder? I don't think the people I am trying to contact are getting them.

Outbox means they haven't been read yet. It allows you to edit them and delete them if you'd like.

Once the intended party reads the message it transfers to your sent folder.

Gotcha I thought that might be the case but wanted to double check. Thanks!

Just curious.....sometimes when I send a PM it is delivered immediately, and other times it sits in my "outbox" for a couple of days. Any reason for this?

Thanks for the insight!

If it's in the outbox it means they didn't open it yet, but it will be in their inbox.

Something else to look at is when the member you sent the PM too last logged on, maybe they haven't been onto EB for awhile and have yet to see the PM.

Cool, thank you for the prompt replies- this all makes perfect sense!

please tell me this thread is one giant merge

I am we Todd did.

Hi all.
I just noticed my PM Outbox has not been sending.
Any advice of whom to contact is appreciated.

The dont look sent until the recipient opens them..

Send one to me as a tester.

What is the difference between the "Outbox" and the "Sentbox" in the EB Private Messaging system?

A Private Message stays in the Outbox until the recipient opens it, after which it automatically moves to the Sentbox.

Thank you. Now that makes sense why they are sitting in the Outbox!
